    Study Notes

    Chemistry: The Central Science

    • Chemistry is the central science that provides a foundation for understanding basic and applied scientific disciplines.

    Chemistry in the Natural Sciences

    • Chemistry studies the building blocks of matter, including atoms, molecules, and ions, within the natural sciences.

    Interdisciplinary Connections

    • Chemistry explains aspects of other scientific disciplines, such as:
      • Biology: the structure and function of biomolecules, like proteins and DNA
      • Physics: the properties and behavior of matter at the atomic and molecular level
      • Earth Science: the composition of the Earth's crust, atmosphere, and hydrosphere
      • Environmental Science: the impact of human activities on the environment

    Position of Chemistry

    • Chemistry is situated between physics and biology, as it:
      • Draws on the laws of physics to understand the behavior of atoms and molecules
      • Provides a framework for understanding the structure and function of biomolecules in biology

    Chemical Compounds

    • Compounds studied in chemistry are made up of:
      • Atoms, which are the smallest units of matter
      • Molecules, which are groups of atoms bonded together
      • Ions, which are atoms or groups of atoms with an electric charge
